Donation Xchange Re-Launches Website

Donation Xchange was the first of its kind, connecting organizations and businesses to their community by allowing them to safely and securely donate or request donation items for auctions and events in an online marketplace setting. The success of Donation Xchange, one of Events.org’s newest online donation solutions, has inspired our team to further innovate the service to even better accommodate users’ needs. Events.org is excited to announce the February 2011 launch of Donation Xchange’s new and improved website, DonationX.org. This next generation platform is newly improved and beneficial to community organizations, nonprofits and donors alike.

Donation Xchange was created when the owners of Events.org, David Hassan and Mark Sweeny, recognized the latent need in the market. The original Donation Xchange was built in an effort to create an efficient platform for organizations that are looking to give back to the community. The beta version, launched in 2009, has since partnered with organizations such as the Detroit Lions, Chicago Blackhawks, Boston Celtics, and MLB.

Though the appearance of the site has been improved, it is the transformation of the Donation Xchange software over the last year that has lead Events.org to redevelop DonationX.org. With the new software you can still utilize all of the services attributed to Donation Xchange, as well as post ticket requests, scholarships and grants. With these changes, the revamped website is designed not only to enhance user experience but to better serve client’s needs and better connect businesses and organizations to the community.
